How do you get rust off.....?

Question

How do you get rust off of knives and forks? I think the dishwasher has caused it.

Answer 1

baking soda and a scrubby or the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. That eraser is a good thing!

Answer 2

bi carb and vinegar Sprinkle with bi carb then vinegar and polish it off and don't put the cutlery in the dishwasher any more.

Answer 3

try using some sos brillo pads and scrub them...if this still doesnt work, they have some rust cleaner in the paint sections in stores like walmart and target and this will get the job done!!

Answer 4

There are plenty of metal cleaners out there, but I find it easier just to use some steel wool.

Fast and easy.

Answer 5

apply bleach on the rusted area but i don't think that'll be a good idea since applying bleach on kitchen utensils is hazardous..

how bout applying lime on the rusted area and pour vinegar afterwards and scrub off the rust..that might work..although i'm not entirely sure

Answer 6

One of thos Magic sponges, won't scratch either.  Works a treat on steel knives too.
